Chapter 146: Following the Footsteps of History
In fact, the rumors about the gold of Tsarist Russia are more chaotic, some say 500 tons, some say 600 tons, and even say 1,600 tons, but the unified theory is that the gold disappeared after it reached the Far East.
There are two versions of the disappearance of the gold, one says that it sank in Lake Baikal, and the other says that it was transported back to Japan by little Japan. Later generations explored the missing gold on Lake Baikal more than once or twice, but no matter how much they explored, they did not find a single shadow of gold, but Russia repeatedly mentioned that a certain Japanese vault stored the missing gold, but because there was no actual evidence, Russia could not legally recover it.
Now Alexander. Vasilyevich. Kolchak, who received almost 80% of the world's direct support, lived a very prosperous life, and never mentioned the matter of the Tsar's entrustment of gold, which makes one wonder whether he had privately embezzled the gold.
The British were the most supportive of Alexander. Vasilyevich. For example, as early as the beginning of World War I, Nicholas II deposited a sum of gold on the London Stock Exchange, but as Nicholas II was sunk by the Soviets in the glacial lake, he honestly floated in the glacial lake as an ice sculpture, and Nicholas II's family members were all killed by the Soviets, which means that the gold stored on the London Stock Exchange became ownerless.
Alexander. Vasilyevich. On more than one occasion, Kolchak tried to claim back the gold that Nicholas II had deposited on the London Stock Exchange, but each time the British government sternly refused, even suggesting that if they were entangled in the matter of gold, then the two sides would not even have to be friends.
The shamelessness of the British has long been world-famous, if it is not shameless, how can there be so many colonies in the world, they did it against almost the whole world in the Punic War, and the international public opinion at that time called it that big, but did the British care? They don't care!
Recently, the British have done a lot of dirty things, especially one named Winston. Churchill's cabinet members kept shouting, and shamelessness seems to have become Britain's national policy in the near future.
Speaking of Winston. Churchill, he actually came from a famous family...... It can be said that this is complete nonsense, if you want to develop in the UK, especially if you can stand up again after falling, how can you not be a famous family?
Winston. Churchill was famous for many things, and he was always the most vocalized and outspoken person in the Cabinet. At the most difficult time of the First World War, he clamoured to bomb French cities, and the British Air Force did take the advice and bombed French cities endlessly. They interpret the bombing of their allies' cities as contributing to the defeat of the allies.
After the end of World War I, Britain was anxious to improve relations with France, as Winston advocated the bombing. Once again, Churchill fell in disgrace.
Alexander. Vasilyevich. Kolchak demanded the tsar's gold deposited on the London Stock Exchange? Disappeared for a while Winston. Churchill reappeared, and he opened his mouth again, saying that the British government would be a national sinner if it handed over the "unclaimed gold".
According to the concept of "his hero, my enemy", Winston. Churchill was a bad and disgusting thing to many countries, but to Britain he was a hero.
Others may only notice Alexander. Vasilyevich. Kolchak begged for gold, and then thought that he was only mentioning the gold that existed on the London Stock Exchange in the early days of the Tsar, but Litch noticed one point, that is, not only the gold that was deposited in the London Stock Exchange in the early days of the Tsar, but also the money entrusted by the Tsar later.
Yes, it was the 600 tons of gold that were transported from St. Petersburg to the Far East, they really went missing on the way to the Far East, but they did not sink to Lake Baikal to be merried, because Alexander . Vasilyevich. Kolchak was not so miserable that he had to flee all the way. The gold was indeed entrusted to the Japanese army for transportation, but there was a shadow of the British.
"According to the intelligence system of the leader, the train transporting gold was lost near Lake Baikal. Vasilyevich. Kolchak suspected that it was swallowed by Britain and Japan, but there was a cat in it. "Ernst. The person Rohm faced was Wu Peifu. He continued in stumbling Chinese: "We found clues in the Yablonov Mountains. β
Wu Peifu naturally doesn't speak German, he doesn't even know English, after all, he is an old-school soldier, and even the Beijing accent (Mandarin) is not so standard, it is a Shandong accent.
In order to be as secretive as possible, the translation of what is naturally not brought, thanks to Ernst. Roma knows Chinese, although he does not speak standardly, but all of them are half pounds and eight taels, and most of the communication between the two is even guessing, and half pointing to the map with gestures.
The Yablonov Mountains are on the western side of the Trans-Khingan Mountains, and according to the promise of the Great Mentor, they belong to one of the lands to be returned to the Beiyang government, but they are now the territory of the White Guards.
The land that the Great Mentor promised to return is actually the territory of the White Guards, and it is no wonder that the Great Mentor is so generous, after all, he wants to get the land back from the hands of the White Guards, not from the hands of the Great Mentor.
The Beiyang government is now with Alexander. Vasilyevich. Kolchak and Anton. Ivanovich. The White Guards led by Denikin are actual military alliances, although they are playing soy sauce behind various countries in Europe and the United States, but they are also allies!
"Stinky and long name!" Wu Peifu said in a thick Shandong accent: "It's ours, it's ours!" We will definitely get it back in the end! β
Ernst. Once again, Rohm didn't understand what Wu Peifu was talking about, he just saw Wu Peifu's expression excited, and nodded: "The British and Japanese troops there appeared frequently before, and they have only disappeared recently. β
The Freikorps had nearly 100,000 troops involved in the Russian Civil War, and had fought against the Russians several times on the front line, each time winning a great victory. Later, the volunteers sent by the Weimar government also participated in the war, considering that the Freikorps had fought with Soviet Russia for a long time, the French general also withdrew the Freikorps to the rear. Rohm took two divisions (not yet full) to Vladivostok by train to rest and recuperate with most of the intervening armies of other countries that had participated in the war.
Ernst. In addition to his involvement in the Russian Civil War, Rohm also came with a top-secret mission as his leader. When it comes to leaders, he is 10,000 convinced, for no other reason, that is, Li Qi seems to be a prophet, and what will happen will happen if he says anything. So, although he felt that things were a little ridiculous, he still carried out the mission very seriously, and sure enough, he also found some clues from the anomalies of the British and Japanese troops.
The Yablonov Mountains were not a strategic location, and there were no Russian troops fighting the White Guards, so why were the British and Japanese troops there? If you think that some clues point to the Japanese army transporting gold disappearing near Lake Baikal, and then there is calm on the other side of Lake Baikal, then there must be a problem!
"Some of the people we bought told me that they had been ordered to look for something there, but they weren't told what they were looking for. At the same time, some rumors about the disappearance of a detachment in snowstorm weather were confirmed. "Ernst. Rohm was sure whether Wu Peifu understood or not, so he said to himself: "Our geographers and mountain experts have conducted on-the-spot understanding, and combined with the routes explored by the British and Japanese troops, we have found the traces of that gold. β
A gold bar was taken by Ernst. Rohm took it out, the gold bar had Russian on it, and he grinned and said, "The Japanese probably didn't know where to go when they were hiding from the snowstorm, and they found a natural cave......
Wu Peifu only cared about looking at the gold bar, Lian Ernst. Rohm didn't bother to listen to anything, looked at it for a while, and said sullenly: "I found it, I found it, but ...... The British and Little Japan checked so closely, it doesn't matter if a small group of people go to investigate, there are more people...... It's hard not to find out! β
Ernst. RΓΆhm seemed to understand, and nodded: "That's right, so we've erased the traces once again." Follow the leader's instructions to wait for the rumors to pass before acting. Probably three months later? During these three months, you need to have enough capacity and do so in secret. β
The Yablonov Mountains are not close to the Beiyang government-controlled area, and if it wants to have a practical transportation route, the Beiyang government has only two options: to tighten its control over the steppes or to involve the Feng faction led by Zhang Zuolin.
Although Wu Peifu is one of the leaders of the direct line, he has no way to make his own decisions, and when he understands that if he wants to participate in the division of gold, he needs to attack the grassland or the Feng family, so he has to suspect that the so-called gold is a bait that was thrown, and in fact, the Germans want them to break out into a civil war again.
"My leader's opinion is that it is more appropriate for you to choose to start with the grasslands." Ernst. Rohm saw that the yellow race was actually the same, and could distinguish expressions, but he was still a little confused by the anger and suspicion, and he continued: "Hasn't the grassland always wanted to get out of your control? In the past, the steppe was backed by Tsarist Russia, but now Tsarist Russia is powerless to manage the steppe. In addition, now that the main enemy of the White Guards is the Bolsheviks, you are now a military alliance, and now is the best time to clear the steppe independence forces. β
Maybe it's the relationship that I memorized before, Ernst. The Chinese spoken by Rohm this time is extremely standard?
Wu Peifu sneered and said, "You guys really know us!" β
"Yes, yes, we have to understand you. If you don't know, how can you cooperate? "Ernst. RΓΆhm took it for granted: "In fact, this is our first collaboration and the beginning of a series of collaborations to come. β
As the leader of the National Socialist Workers' Party, Li Qi thought very clearly that cooperation with the countries of the Far East was inevitable. After he was busy with the Bavarian arrangement, he came back to his senses and found that the history of China in the Far East had changed a lot!
Very big indeed! What should have been a warlord scuffle miraculously did not happen, and a government with a wide range of political parties was formed, and even the "artillery party" was added.
Of course, the "Artillery Party" still exists as an opposition opposition, and it is still the same as holding a Japanese salary, playing with a Japanese girl, and enjoying Japanese protection...... (I just don't know if there is a secret cedence of part of the grassland and the east ~ north to the little devils), in short, it is a complete opposition.
The scene of the land of China frightened Li Qi, and after the confusion, he smiled bitterly. He really didn't want to interfere too much in the Far East, nor did he think about becoming a virgin, but he didn't expect to intervene in the European war, and with a small wing, the place where the storm started would be in the Far East.
Some people in the Beiyang government may have such stains, but one thing is more certain: after the outbreak of the national war, most of them chose not to accept, not to compromise, and not to admit in the face of the coercion and temptation of small Japan. At that time, most of the old men in Beiyang were actually Yugong who had lost their power, as long as they nodded to Little Japan, they could finally rise back and become the head of the party or something.
Li Qi still has a lot of respect for those who can maintain their national integrity in some difficult times, but that is not the reason for his cooperation with the Far Eastern countries, mainly because he follows the line of the Weimar government, hoping to obtain resources after cooperating with the Far Eastern countries.
In fact, from the time of the Weimar government until 1937, Germany's largest source of non-ferrous metals was the Far East. If Li Qi wants to prepare for war, then there is absolutely no shortage of non-ferrous metals, including tungsten, and the country where tungsten is currently found in the largest amount is in the Far East.
Tungsten is one of the main resources for the manufacture of primitive~sub~bombs, and some alloy steels are also absolutely indispensable. The original ~ son ~ Rich is on the horse, and he has already found Werner. Heisenberg and Otto. Hahn was just secretly paying attention to and funding, but he didn't stupidly pounce on it or tie it up.
In addition to a huge amount of tungsten ore in the Far East, there are also uranium ores, but the amount is not as large as tungsten ore. Where is uranium? Don't ask Li Qi why he knows, he just knows that there is at least one uranium mine in Jiangxi. The number is not huge, but ...... It is estimated that it is enough to make one or two primordial~sub~ bombs.
"We will deepen cooperation, from industry to the military." Ernst. Rohm had not yet noticed that Wu Peifu's face was getting worse and worse, and he said to himself: "Believe in one thing, the unpopular Weimar government will soon collapse, and my leader will inevitably become the leader of Germany in the future." Whether it's the completion of the contract left over from the Weimar government, or the closer cooperation, you can't do without my leader. β
